GSA and local boutique partner for prom 'shopping' experience

|March 13, 2025
Donated attire will be free to local students
George Stevens Academy and a Blue Hill boutique have partnered to present a special “shopping” experience for prom goers, with the special twist that everything is free during the April 18 event.
“This is not just about dresses,” said GSA Dean of Students Chrissy Allen. “We’re really putting out a call to the community for donations.”
While visiting the Blue Hill boutique, Juniper, with her daughter around the holidays, Allen struck up a conversation with fellow parent and shop owner, Amanda Woog. It was during that conversation that the idea of hosting a prom shopping experience at Juniper came to fruition.

This is both unsurprising and a cause for deep concern.
